A DISTRESSED Drumchapel woman has revealed she was met with “smirking” and “rudeness” from carers who parked their car in front of a dropped kerb - blocking her disabled parents from crossing the road.
The family - who live on Kinfauns Drive - use nearby Drumchapel Park to walk the service dogs who help with mobility care. She said of the dropped pavement: “That's the only kind of safe place that we've got to get my mum and dad off the kerb.“It's a head injury my mum has, she got hit by a slate when she was 11, just turned 12, and it paralysed her from the neck down.
“But that would mean mum and dad have both to drive on the road for quite a wee distance to get to the actual ramp at the other side facing oncoming traffic and then with traffic coming up at the back of them.”
